Here's a simple guide to getting started with your GottaGo Toilet; Setting up, use, disposal of waste, and general cleaning and care.
Setting up your GottaGo
- Make sure that both the solids and liquids containers are clean and inserted into the GottaGo Toilet base.
- Set up your selected container!
For Eco Cassettes (Bagging/Composting)
Bagging: Line the solids cassette with a compostable bag. We recommend medium to large-sized portable toilet compostable bags.Compost: Add a layer of composting substrate (like sawdust or peat moss) into the cassette. Optional to add a compostable bag first, and to layer on composting substrate every time you...go. This helps absorb liquids and smell.
For Chemical Cassette
Add 4L water & 100ml of the chemical mixture into the Chemical Cassette. We find this is a good amount to break down the solids into a "slurry" for easy emptying in most situations.
We recommend giving the Chemical Cassette a shake every few days to agitate the contents and encourage the solids to break down. - Fill the included spray bottle with a vinegar and water mixture (see our cleaning solutions article).
- Set up your GottaGo on a dry, flat surface.
- Pull the accessories hanger (on the side) to hang your spray bottle and Po(o)ker stick.
- Have your TP/Wet Wipes ready!
- Optionally, you can spray your toilet bowl with the cleaning solution to pre-sanitize and lubricate it before use.
Using Your GottaGo
- To your GottaGo for liquids (urine), lift the lid and use the toilet. Be sure to change the urine container cap to the "open" cap to allow liquids in.
- To use your GottaGo for solids, pull the solids latch to open the solids compartment, do your business. Then use the spray, toilet paper, or wet wipes for cleaning. The Po(o)ker stick is there to help clean the bowl without getting too close to the nasties. When done, close the tab to re-seal the solids compartment!
Disposal of Waste & Cleaning
Make sure that you properly dispose of waste & keep your GottaGo clean and sanitary.
